Ingredient processing in one of the most time consuming tasks in a kitchen, and no matter whether it’s a seasoned chef, a culinary enthusiast or a simple homemaker, they all have to deal with it. The only way to save the hassle is to use a KitchenAid stand mixer that comes with attachments that can make ingredient processing much easier. That said, in this post, we list three essential Kitchenaid stand mixer attachments that you must have in your kitchen, in case you don’t have them already.

1. Juicer and Sauce Attachment

When you think of kitchen mixers, the standard automated mixer with a built-in whisk and mixing bowl comes to mind.  However, did you know that mixers are excellent kitchen tools which are great for making a variety of tasty juices and sauces?  This will sound like music to your ears, especially if you are one of those health enthusiasts who like to start the day off with a delicious glass of nutritious orange juice!   An especially good mixer is the KitchenAid Juicer and Sauce attachment. The attachment fits on the main mixer easily and quickly. It does the job that a juicer would do by slicing, processing, and extracting the juice and all of its nutrients and minerals in hard and soft fruits and vegetables as efficiently as possible to ensure that you end up drinking a very nutritious glass of juice!  What’s more, is that this versatile attachment allows you to regulate the amount of pulp which ends up in your juice with thee different pulp screens. You can use the juicer and sauce attachment to make delicious jams and sauces which rival those found in gourmet stores anytime you want!

2. Food Processor Attachment

If you need to prepare any dish in the kitchen, the KitchenAid food processor attachment will quickly become your best friend because it slices, shreds, grinds, and/or juliennes fruits and vegetables, leaving you to the more complicated and enjoyable task of cooking.  The KitchenAid food processor attachment comes with the innovative Exactslice system which has an external lever that allows you to control the width and thickness of the food you are going to prepare (with the food processor!). The lever allows you to choose from six different settings in terms of the thickness of the slices (of fruits and vegetables.)  The KitchenAid food processor attachment will work with any KitchenAid stand mixer, and easily attaches to the hub allowing it to do the repetitious, boring, and mundane tasks of preparing food for you!

3. Fruit/Vegetable Strainer Set

The KitchenAid strainer set works wonders when you need to perform the tedious, mundane, and repetitive tasks of processing fruits and vegetables - whether it is straining, peeling, or pureeing them to the desired consistency that the recipe you are following in the kitchen requires.  You can easily make tomato sauces, ketchup, pasta sauces, butter, delicious baby food, and any other food item imaginable with the KitchenAid Strainer. What’s more, is that this strainer not only reduces the amount of time you spend in the kitchen prepping food to be cooked, but it also enhances the flavor and taste of the end dishes by making the ingredients that it processes which go into the dishes taste better and have a better consistency and quality!
